You can format your text by changing the font, text alignment, and text direction. For example, the text direction can be set for left-to-right, right-to-left or vertical. You can also add borders and shadows, or rotate the text. Add a text backdrop to superimpose your text on a solid or gradient shape to make it stand out. You can also define how long a title clip appears by adjusting the title clip duration.
Text direction is one of many formatting settings for titles.
